Hey readers! This is my first fanfic! Yay! Okay... the usual procedure:
Sailor Moon doesn't belong to me (I wish!) and never will. It belongs to
Naoko and whatever company she granted right to. I, on the other hand
are among all those poor starving authors who write fanfiction and don't
earn money off it. Anyway... don't copy my story or you're going to pay!
(laughs hysterically).
To prevent flames on me, I just want to say that this story is inspired
by Judith Michael's "Sleeping Beauty". A good read, too! Don't worry,
You probably are sick of my babbling now, so on with the story! On yeah,
one more thing, this is rated PG13 - R (more PG13, though. Just watch
for some parts).
Falling Chapter 7 by Angelica (that's me! ^_^) sailoryaoli@hotmail.com
Rated: PG 13 - R

(I do swear that I'll always be there.
I'd give anything and everything and
I will always care. Through weakness
and strength, happiness and sorrow, for
better for worse, I will love with every
beat of my heart...)
From this moment... life has begun...
From this moment... you are the one...
Right beside you is where I belong...
From this moment on...
From this moment... I have been blessed...
I live only for your happiness...
And for your love... I'd give my last breath...
From this moment on...
I give my hand to you with all heart...
Can't wait to live my life with you...
can't wait to start...
You and I will never be apart...
My dreams came true... because of you...
From this moment as long as I live...
I will love you, I promise you this...
There is nothing I wouldn't give...
From this moment on...
You're the reason I believe in love...
And you're the answer to my prayers from up above...
All we need is just the two of us...
My dreams... came true...
because of you...
From this moment as long as I live...
I will love you, I promise you this...
There is nothing I wouldn't give...
From this moment...
I will love you as long as I live..
From this moment on...

(TAKES A DEEP BREATH... WHEW!)
"Darien, you need to rest," Rei pleaded, concerned. He sat on the seat
beside Serena, staring at her, deep in thought. He hasn't shaven in quite a
while and he had bloodshot eyes.
"You guys! Did you hear the news? The police is undergoing a search for
James Thorten! He will be arrested for hiring an assassin to kill Serena! His
wife Lisa testified against him and proof have been found! He is going to
spend a life sentence for child abuse and murder when they find him! Lisa's
filling a divorce, too!" Lisa cried out, bursting into the room and shoving
a newspaper into Darien's hands. They shook as he read the article. His heart
bleed for her when he read about her past...
"Oh my god! That's why Serena ran away! I would've killed that bastard...
poor her... she had such a hard life! And I can't believe he murdered the
assassin!" Rei exclaimed, violet eyes lighting with inner fire. She wanted to
cry for Serena. No one deserves such pain. Darien sat there, shocked. That's
why she rejected... That's why she's always cold and sad... The pieces of the
puzzle fitted together at last. He wanted to kill him... he wanted to make
the man that hurt his angel go burn in hell... He thought about Serena... she
was so pure and innocent outside a harsh shell. No. She wouldn't have wanted
him to think such evil thoughts.
"Darien... you okay?" His sister looked at him with deep concern. Lita
also gazed at him comfortingly. They were both crying.
"I wonder... if she'll live..." he croaked out, tears coming out of his
eyes. "I love her so much... I wish I could endure her pain for her."
"I've known Serena since she was two. She was always the stronger one...
the wiser one... the kinder one... Fate won't let her die. She won't die
on us," Lita reassured, not wanting Darien to see her doubts. Rei nodded,
giving him a hug.
"Go and rest, Darien. Serena's pulse is still going strong. Her body
is healing... the cardiologists did an excellent job on her heart. She is
out of the danger zone," Ami commented quietly. She and Mina had just
arrived from San Francisco to see Serena.
"I never knew she had so much pain in her live," Mina said with a shaking
voice. She wiped her tears with the back of her hand. She was so pale...
there was tubes everywhere and a machine is marking her heartbeat with a
steady beep. Her long hair fell around her frame, the golden color
contrasting with her whitish cheeks. A bony hand peeked out of a sleeve
of an oversized hospital gown. Beside her was a table full of flowers and
get well cards. She may never see them. When will you wake up? When will
you let me love you, heal you? We can draw strength from each other...
His heart asked. The group was silent for a while, each praying for Serena's
wellness.
"Go home and rest!" Rei persisted, grabbing onto his arm. He shrugged
her off. Rei glared silently. Her brother can be as stubborn as she sometimes.
He felt that... if he leave his angel for one second, she'll disappear forever.
She was so thin... it almost seems like she will become transparent and fly
away any second, only to be carried by the wind.
"At least... get some sleep. I brought a sleeping bag for you," Mina
said quietly. He didn't seem to hear her...
(TWO WEEKS LATER)
He sat there, looking at his sleeping beauty. She had a faint glow
on her cheeks now. The doctors told him she'll wake up anytime now. He
watched her for as long as he cam remember now. Days of deprived sleep made
him thinner... weaker. But he refused to go home.
"I love you Serena. You can't leave me..." He pleaded softly, reaching
out to grasp her hand.
"Darien..." She murmured, her voice only slightly louder than a whisper.
His eyes widened as he witnessed her heavy lashes flutter. Blue eyes gazed
into blue... Time seemed to freeze as they stared at each other, love in
their eyes.
She turned away sharply, not wanting to see his face, fearing that she'll
fall in love with him all over again.
"You don't mean that Darien... you love someone else," she said quietly
with certainty.
"Never!" He swore. She hesitated... His voice is so full of passion...
could he possibly mean it? No... the letter... the necklace.
"You have a mistress... her name is Emerald." Darien is confused at
her words. Emerald? Isn't that the name of her assassin?
"Why would you suggest the person who tried to kill you my mistress?"
Not it was her turn to be confused.
"What do you mean?"
"Emerald was your assassin... she was hired by your uncle, who wanted
your half of the company after you died." She shut her eyes painfully, tears
coming out. It was James...
"It was fake then..."
"What was fake?"
"She sent me a letter, pretending that you wrote it and said something
about her being your mistress and meeting you in a hotel. There was keys.
I got angry at you ... what you said to me that day at the Forest Eatery
was false so I went to the hotel to give you a piece of my mind. You weren't
there... and ... the next thing I knew, a sharp thing stabbed me in the
head. Who found me?"
"Rei... she and Jedite were planning to do *something* together that
night." She smiled at that comment. Rei seemed to be the rebellious type.
"Serena... I love you. I've never said anything to anyone else before
and I mean it. I knew the moment I saw you. I know it seems so fast, but love
knows no time. I feel... so fulfilled ever since I talked to you." Serena
bit her lips, wondering how to react. Tears came to her eyes. He looked
concerned at her teardrops.
Brushing them away gently, he continued, "Please Serena. If...if you
don't want it, I'll understand." No you won't. You'll wither and die she
thought, looking deep into the recesses of his soul. He mean every word.
She wanted to say yes. Why don't you? Why don't she? Gripping his hand,
a watery grin broke among tears of joy as she nodded her head. It's all
over now... all the horrible memories. He made them all go away...
whisking my demons as if they were feathers. I can simply move one now...
and never look back.
"I love you..." They laughed at each other for a while. He leaned over,
and sealed their words with a tender kiss. She felt like floating as their
lips connected. It was the sweetest, most wonderful sensation. *Snap*
They both turned to face a giggling Mina, and a starry eyed Lita, both
holding cameras. Amy was blushing and Rei looked pleased.
"You guys!" Serena scolded, giving them a dark look. They smiled back
slyly.
"What can I say? It's a Kodak moment!" Mina said sheepishly.
"Quite complaining! We're giving you some memories captured on pictures!"
Lita added. They looked at each other.
"Go on! We have plenty of more rolls!" Mina encouraged, holding her
camera in front of her.
"Well?" Serena asked him, eyes dancing with passion.
"Let's give them a show," he said quietly, his lips meeting hers again.
**********
EPILOGUE
"Wahh! this is so romantic!" Mina said, grabbing another tissue. Lita
nodded vigorously. It was a beautiful wedding and coming all the way to England
to the church was worth it. The doors opened and Rei and Jedite entered, being
the only bridesmaid and best man since all of their friends are already committed.
Serena walked down the aisle, her face flushed, roses in front of her. It was
like the wedding in her dream... without Emerald. Her dress trailed behind her
in soft waves. She was the most beautiful bride ever.
Darien met her gleaming eyes. They looked breathtaking... and deeply in
love. He had on an expensive suit and they complimented each other perfectly.
Serena flashed Mina and Ami a smile, as Lita sighed dreamily, clutching to her
husband, who chuckled, not willing to express how much the wedding stirred
his soul (he had a manly disposition to keep!).
"Dearly beloved, we are here to gather..." The wedding began... and so
did a new chapter of their lives...
He stood outside the church, hiding behind a bush. He looked disgusted.
Cruel lips twisted into a smirk. She had won, for now. Once married, he won't
get anything even if he killed her. But he can start again... maybe even bury
their company. Yes... that was it... he'll bring them down himself. They'll
pay... for everything. He may have lost in a battle, but he will triumph in
a war. Prepare for the worst, Serena... I swear... I will watch them bury
you in your grave. He smiled again, leaving the church quietly.
THE END!
What do you think! If you're reading this at fanfic.net, please review me. I know
it takes your precious time (time when you can read more good fanfics), and it
is a little bit of a hassle, but it will be the highlight of my day! Pretty please?
I'm glad that people take the time and consideration to actually review me! A
short message will be fine. Thanks everyone! Watch out for SPARKS... my next story.
Here's a teaser...
Serena Kinksow, a woman at 29 was bored with life. Ever since the bad break-up
with Darien Lovejoy when she was 17, she refused a love life. When a job was offered
in her hometown, she caught up with Darien. Sparks flew as she felt herself back
in a heated romance with a man she used to loath.
As soon as I'm done writing it on paper... I'll type it up and publish it.
Thanks to everyone for there support! Writing have been a joy! Till next time!
